Borregaard in short Norwegian innovators since 1889 Established in 1889 as the KellnerPartingtonPaper Pulp Company Ltd Today world s most advanced biorefinery Started the biorefinery concept in mid 1930s ~ 1000 employees globally 700 at the main site in Sarpsborg, Norway R&D employing 98 people, with 34 PhDs Local presence in 16 countries worldwide E.g. Japan, Singapore, China, EU, USA
High value added through full raw material utilisation
Research and development ~12% of Borregaard s revenues come from new products «BALI» is a innovation project extracting both lignin and bioethanol EXILVA: Microfibrillar cellulose and Sensefi Advanced Texture Systems «BALI»: Utilisation of other biomasses for lignin products «BALI»: Developingnew process for 2G bioethanol Continuous specialisation and improved products

Borregaard s new innovation - Exilva Investment in commercial scale production facility Exilva has a unique set of characteristics Rheology modification, stabilisation, dispersion, barrier properties Valuable and novel applications in a variety of products Adhesives, agriculture, ceramics, coatings, composites, construction, cosmetics, de-icing, detergents, filters, home care, oilfield, personal care, pharma, water treatment New production facility (MicroFibrillated Cellulose) Initial capacity 50.000 tonnes Production expected to start in Q3-16
Exilva -The Natural Performance Enhancer Product characteristics 3D-network of cellulose microfibres suspended in water High available surface area with functional OHgroups Shear thinning and ultra-high in viscosity at rest Versatile and robust Stable in extreme environments including ph, temperature and shear VOC-free and odorless Exilva 10% paste Exilva 2% dispersion Natural and infinitely sustainable Delivered as 2% dispersion and 10% paste

Exilvafor Coatings Applications
Exilva -The Natural Performance Enhancer Multifunctionalityin formulations with Exilva Improves rheology Strong thickening and shear thinning Readily activated with no pre-hydration time required Excellent anti-sag properties Improves dispersion and anti-settling of particles Prevents sedimentation and phase separation Without Exilva High water holding capacity Improves substrate wetting Anti-cracking effect Increase flexibility in handling and process Stable in extreme environments including ph 1-13 and temperatures up to 200 C With Exilva Control of light transmission/reflection Mattifying effect Reduction or replacement of shading/mattifying agent Increases formulation efficiency Multifunctional qualities reduce cost of formulation
Exilva in Exterior flat paint
Objectives To identify the potential of Exilva into Exterior paint Functionalities beyond rheology Benchmark vs. HEC No influence on other properties
ExteriorFlat Paint PVC 45% The formulation with Exilva performed better then HEC at: Stability, syneresis resistance Mud-crack resistance Scrub resistance Dirt pick up resistance Other properties (such as KU viscosity, gloss, heat stability etc.) remained unchange
Exterior Flat Paint Mudcrack resistance Reference with HEC Cracking > 14 Mils (0.36 mm) Exilva No Cracking, Pass 60 Mils (1.52 mm)
Improved stability against syneresis Reference with HEC Exilva
